Accordingly, the Purchaser and the Sellers agree that, prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers have delivered to the Purchaser a good faith estimate of (i) the Net Working Capital, (ii) the adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4 and (iii) the net impact of such estimated adjustments on the Cash Amount and the Purchase Price (the “Estimated Closing Statement”),

Dispute Resolution Procedure

Upon receipt of the Closing Financial Statements and the Closing Working Capital Statement, the Seller Parties and their accountants (subject to reasonable confidentiality restrictions) shall be permitted during the succeeding forty-five (45) day period (the “Review Period”) reasonable access during business hours to the personnel of the Purchaser and its Affiliates, and any documents (including Books and Records), schedules or workpapers used by the Purchaser and its Affiliates in the preparation of the Closing Financial Statements and the Closing Working Capital Statement.

The Closing Financial Statements and the Closing Working Capital Statement delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(i) and (ii) and the Purchaser’s

If the Seller Parties deliver a notice of disagreement to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.5(b)(ii), the Purchaser and the Seller Parties shall, during the fifteen (15) day period following the Purchaser’s receipt of such notice, negotiate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve promptly all of the disputed items and amounts specified in such notice of disagreement. Any such disputed items and amounts that are resolved by a written agreement between the Purchaser and the Seller Parties within such fifteen (15) day period shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties and shall become part of the calculations of the Net Working Capital and any adjustment to the Purchase Price as provided in Section 2.4.

If the Purchaser and the Seller Parties are unable to resolve all of the disputed items and amounts that were included in a notice of disagreement by the end of such fifteen (15) day period, then as promptly as practicable and in no event later than ten (10) days thereafter, they shall jointly engage and submit the matters that remain in dispute for resolution to the Independent Accountant. Each party agrees (A) to execute a reasonable engagement letter with the Independent Accountant to review this Section 2.5 and agrees to comply with the terms hereof, (B) to submit to the Independent Accountant not later than fifteen (15) days after its engagement a written statement summarizing its position on the matters that remain in dispute, together with such supporting documentation as it deems necessary, and (C) not to engage in any ex-parte communications with the Independent Accountant.

The Purchaser and the Seller Parties shall jointly instruct the Independent Accountant that: (A) it shall act as an expert in accounting, and not as an arbitrator, to resolve the matters that remain in dispute and were included in the notice of disagreement in accordance with the methodologies and assumptions used by the Corporation in the preparation of the Financial Statements, the Estimated Closing Statement, and other terms of this Agreement; (B) it shall base its decision solely on the written submissions of the Purchaser and the Seller Parties and shall not conduct an independent review or audit; (C) it may not assign a dollar value to any disputed item greater than the highest amount or less than the lowest amount claimed by the Purchaser or the Seller Parties, as applicable; and (D) it shall deliver to

The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be allocated to and borne by the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the disputed amounts resolved by the Independent Accountant, which proportionate allocations shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of all such disputed amounts and shall be determined by the Independent Accountant and included in its written decision. For example, if the disputed amounts total $1,000 and the Independent Accountant awards $600 in favour of the Purchaser’s position and $400 in favour of the Sellers position, 60% (i.e., 600 ÷ 1,000) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant would be borne by the Sellers and 40% (i.e., 400 ÷ 1,000) would be borne by the Purchaser.

Upon acceptance of the Closing Working Capital Statement by the Purchaser and the Seller Parties, or a final determination pursuant to Section 2.5(b) if the Purchase Price, as finally adjusted in accordance with the provisions hereof (the “Adjusted Purchase Price”):

is greater than the Purchase Price as adjusted and paid at Closing pursuant to Section 2.3(b) (the “Closing Purchase Price”), then the Purchase Price shall, in accordance with Section 2.4, be increased, dollar for dollar, by the amount by which the Adjusted Purchase Price exceeds the Closing Purchase Price, and the Purchaser shall promptly pay in cash, to the Sellers’ Counsel, in trust for the Sellers, the amount of such difference; and

is less than the Closing Purchase Price (the amount of such difference, the “Shortfall Amount”), the Purchase Price shall, in accordance with Section 2.4, be decreased, dollar for dollar, by the Shortfall Amount and the Sellers shall promptly pay to the Purchaser, in cash, an amount equal to the Shortfall Amount.  The Purchaser shall also be permitted, by written notice to the Sellers within two (2) days after such final determination and prior to any such payment by the Sellers, in its sole discretion, to require the Holdback Amount to be used to satisfy the Sellers’ obligations in this Section 2.5(c)(ii), and, if so, the Purchaser and the Sellers will provide instructions, set forth in a joint written notice, to the Escrow Agent to pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to the Shortfall Amount from the Holdback Amount and, in the event the Holdback Amount is insufficient to satisfy the Shortfall

Notwithstanding the foregoing: (A) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to pay, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim, provided that in such event the Indemnified Party shall waive all rights against the Indemnifying Party to indemnification under this Article 8 with respect to such Third Party Claim unless the Indemnified Party shall have sought the consent of the Indemnifying Party to such payment, settlement or compromise and such consent shall have been unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and (B) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into a settlement with respect to any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party if the judgment or settlement (1) involves only the payment of money damages (all of which will be paid in full by the Indemnifying Party concurrently with the effectiveness thereof), (2) does not encumber any of the assets of the Indemnified Party and does not contain any restriction or condition that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Party or the conduct of its business, (3) does not include an admission of wrong doing on the part of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates and (4) includes, as a condition to any settlement or other resolution, a complete and irrevocable release of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.5, the Seller Parties shall have the right to represent the Corporation’s interests in any Tax Contest relating to Liabilities for Taxes for which the Seller Parties would be required to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article 8 and which relate to the Pre-Closing Period; provided, however, that the Seller Parties shall have no right to represent the Corporation’s interests in any Tax Contest unless the Seller Parties shall have (A) first notified the Purchaser in writing of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim for Taxes, (B) agreed with the Purchaser in writing that, as between the Purchaser and the Seller Parties, the Seller Parties shall be liable for any Taxes that result from such Tax Contest, and (C) paid to the Purchaser an amount equal to the amount of such Taxes required to be paid by the Corporation as and when required by Applicable Law, notwithstanding that such Tax Contest may not have been finally determined.

For greater certainty, the parties acknowledge and agree that the obligations and liabilities of the Seller Parties under this Article 8 shall not be limited to the amount of the Holdback Amount held by the Escrow Agent from time to time.
